this movie being produced by egyptian ex-patriots who live in the united states. roughly a dozen men, according to ap reports, scaled the embassy wall and actually were able to get the flag of the united states and tear it down, chanting there is no god but god and mohammed is the prophet of god. this all happening within the last few hours. and these again, protesters are described as being hard-line islamist supporters of what is known as the salafist movement or egyptian football fans or soccer fans. they're protesting production of a movie they deem offensive to the prophet mohammed. melissa: adam, i hate to put you on the spot because i know you're on this breaking story. do you know if the embassy was evacuated or there are americans inside? >> the embassy issued a statement condemning what happened. as you go through the reports here, doesn't look if the embassy was evacuated or got into the embassy. they got over the wall these men to tear down the stars an stripes. melissa: adam shapiro, thank you so much for that report. >> yep. melissa: so the jobs mark
